I have a 6gal carboy of cranberry wine ready for bottling.
I wanted to experiment a little so I filled a 1/4 cup with the wine.
I added a few drops of pure orange extract (89%alcohol, orange oil) to the cup.
The result taste great.
SOooo I added about 1/2 oz of the extract to the 6gal carboy of cranberry wine.
The sparkling red cranberry wine instantly was cloudy. Ugh.
Now I don't know what to do.....I am going to let it sit to see if it clears, but I'm worried I created some weird chemical reaction.
Anyone have an idea of what happened to create the cloud, and what I can do to get the sparkle back?
Thanks
